Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is releasing some exciting DLC today. The Kit Upgrade DLC features four separate kits, one for each class, which include unique skins for your uniforms and weapons. The DLC also includes twelve new awards and four new achievements for players to work towards.

Here's a quote from Battlefield's blog about the specific items you can purchase:

Recruited strictly from other high-level Special Operations units such as Delta Force and Spetsnaz, the Special Activities groups — SPECACT - are the elite of the elite, used mainly for covert operations and other high-risk missions in areas where conventional troops cannot be used.

With the 4 kit specific unique uniforms and the camouflaged SPECACT personal M16A2, UMP-45, MG3 and M95 SNIPER you have a visual edge on the Battlefield, showing that you’re a force to be reckoned with. The pack also includes 12 new awards and 4 Achievements.

If you're in Europe you can purchase the Kit Upgrade DLC right now on Xbox Live Marketplace for 160 MS points per kit, or 440 MS points for all four kits. Players in North America cannot purchase the DLC, and instead have to seek out special promotion codes on Dr. Pepper cans.

Any Ranters out there interested in adding a little flair to their Battlefield: Bad Company 2 soldiers? And best of luck finding codes to you North American folk, don't rot your teeth out drinking all of that Dr. Pepper.
